Note:
This “idle timeout” function may not work due to abnormal
activities of some network application software, computer virus
or hacker attacks from the Internet. For example, some software
sends network packets to the Internet in the background, even if
you are not using the Internet. So please turn off your computer
if it is not in use. This function also may not work with some ISP.
So please make sure this function can work properly when you
use this function at the first time, especially if your ISP charges
you by the time used.
